WATCH: Olympian and Influencer Alica Schmidt gives a glimpse of her vacation in Maldives with a message 

Olympian Alica Schmidt shared a glimpse from her vacation in the Maldives via her social media handle on October 12. The athlete recently wrapped her 2024 season after facing an unfortunate end to her Paris Olympics dream.

Schmidt, who couldn't win an Olympic medal in the 2024 Summer Games, is currently enjoying her time in the Maldives, enjoying the picturesque beauty of the location in a video she shared where she was spotted wearing a blue bikini.

In the video, Alica was seen enjoying and running on the beach before jumping into the water. The German athlete captioned the post with a message that read:

"Life is worth living💙 "

During the Paris Olympics, Schmidt's Olympics campaign did not pan out as expected after she couldn't make it to the finals of the women's 4x400m relay. Alica and her team, which comprised Skadi Schier, Mayer, and Demes, attained a seventh-place finish in Heat 2 of the event.

The 25-year-old also fell short of reaching the finals in the mixed 4x400m relay event as she and her team finished seventh in the race, ruling them out of contention.

Alica Schmidt detailed her heartbreaking experience at the Paris Olympics

Following her upsetting experience at the Paris Olympics, Alica Schmidt shared an emotional post on Instagram, reflecting on her experience in the French Capital. She shared a carousel of pictures, which carried moments of her time at the 2024 Summer Games, and wrote:

"The Olympics are not just about winning medals. It‘s about being alongside inspiring athletes while competing at the highest level. Showing ambition, celebrating diversity and people no matter who they are and where they are from. The past weeks were an emotional rollercoaster and I was able to learn a lot. As an athlete I am still not where I want to be and maybe I will never be. But the one thing that is for sure: I will never stop trying and figuring out ways to improve. I love taking you guys with me on this journey and hope to inspire young athletes and show how amazing this sport can be!"

She also added a message for the aspiring athletes who couldn't make it to the Paris Olympics:

"Everyone who knows sport is aware that it takes a village getting there and all athletes can be so proud of themselves for making the team! And to those athletes who didn‘t make it to Paris this year, never stop believing in yourself. It‘s a bumpy road and one day all your hard work will eventually pay off!"

While Alica Schmidt has won no Olympic medals, she won a silver and a bronze medal in the 4x400m relay event at the 2017 European Athletics U20 Championships and 2019 European Athletics U23 Championships, respectively.
